There's small transponders already in use in RC aircraft (not that I've seen one...), as they are used for pylon racing. How big were they in the Scanners last weekend in Toowoomba guys? They may only have a short useful range though, not enough for a Cessna to pick up in time to take evasive action.
Your last paragraph is exactly right Liam. The issue of people not bothering to look for rules and perhaps still not knowing there are actually rules. People are still thinking that the small drones are just toys; harmless toys, so they can be flown anywhere they like.
I'm wondering about how CASA will be able to keep up with the turnover of models that park-flying pilots have. I don't suppose that commercial drone operators will have a high fatality rate, so keeping the data base up to date won't be hard for them.
